Intended Use
This product is to be used only in conjunction with the Adult Star Model ventilator. It provides a monitoring function only and therefore has no direct interaction with ventilator function. The Trending option will periodically sample ventilator data to be used as trended parameters. This option is intended for the operator to track a total of 54 patient and ventilator parameters over a maximum time period of 72 hours. Three trended parameters can be displayed simultaneously. A cursor can then be used scan the trended dated to determine the time and magnitude of a particular occurrence or change in a monitored function. In addition, Patient data such as name, weight, clinician identification, and blood gas test data can be manually inputted. The Trending option allows real-time pressure, flow, and volume waveforms to be saved and recalled for comparison to subsequent waveforms. Pressure/Volume and Flow/Volume loops can also be saved and recalled for subsequent comparisons. A hardcopy print out can be made of all saved and trended data.
Device Description
Trending Option is a software and hardware modification to the Adult Star Ventilator (K872466). It adds three features: 72 hour trending of ventilator and patient monitored parameters, storage of Patient Data, and Save and Recall of real time waveforms. This option requires both software and hardware upgrades. The software, or firmware, is retained in EPROM's. The hardware upgrade consists of a print circuit board with battery backed up 256K RAM. A label is added to the front of the ventilator indicating that this option has been installed. This option is designed to function with all available options for the Adult Star Ventilator.
More Information

No
The description focuses on data trending, storage, and recall, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for analysis or prediction.

No
The device provides a monitoring function only and has no direct interaction with the ventilator function, therefore it is not a therapeutic device.

No

The device description states, "It provides a monitoring function only and therefore has no direct interaction with ventilator function." Diagnostic devices typically analyze data to identify diseases or conditions, which is not the stated purpose of this monitoring-only device.

No

The device description explicitly states that the "Trending Option is a software and hardware modification" and "requires both software and hardware upgrades." It details the hardware upgrade as a "print circuit board with battery backed up 256K RAM."

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the product provides a "monitoring function only" and has "no direct interaction with ventilator function." It focuses on tracking and displaying parameters related to the ventilator and patient, as well as storing and recalling waveforms and loops. This is a monitoring and data management function, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a software and hardware modification to a ventilator, adding features for trending, data storage, and waveform recall. This aligns with a monitoring and data management system for a medical device, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

The device's function is to monitor and manage data generated by a ventilator, which is a life support device. While the data it displays might be used by a clinician to inform diagnostic decisions, the device itself is not performing an in vitro diagnostic test.

Pressure/Volume and Flow/Volume loops can also be saved and recalled for subsequent comparisons. A hardcopy print out can be made of all saved and trended data.

Statement of Similarities and/or Differences With Marketed Devices:

The Infrasonics Trending option is a software and hardware upgrade to the Infrasonics Adult Star ventilator. The graphical display of trended parameters are shown on the existing Adult Star CRT. The Trending option is similar to the Puritan Bennett Graphics 2.0 option and the Bird Products Graphics Monitor. The Puritan Bennett Graphics 2.0 option requires a 7200 ae ventilator and an optional 7202 Display. The Bird Graphics monitor is an optional display for the Bird infant and adult ventilators. The Puritan Bennett and the Bird Graphics monitor acquire and display data in a similar manner as the Infrasonics Trending option. All designs use the same general principles and incorporate similar technologies, materials, energy sources, and components.

The primary function of all three products is to acquire ventilator data through an electronic means and store that data for later retrieval. The technological characteristics of the devices are the same and raise no new questions of safety and effectiveness. It is concluded that the Trending Option is substantially equivalent to the Puritan-Bennett and Bird products.

Functionality with Available Options

The Trending Option for the Adult Star Ventilator is to be used in conjunction with or without other available options. The following is a list of the options and the 510(k) number associated with them:
